The World Bank has revised upwards its prediction for Egypt\u2019s GDP growth by 0.5 percentage points to 5.5% for FY2021-2022.<\/p>\n

The bank said in October that it expected growth to come in at 5.0%, but in its latest Global Economic Prospects report hiked its forecast, citing rising exports, growth in our tech and natural gas sectors, and a rebound in tourism. Growth will remain steady at 5.5% next fiscal year, the bank said.<\/p>\n

This tallies with other estimates:<\/strong> The Planning Ministry said last month we\u2019re on track to see the economy grow somewhere between 5.5% and 5.7% in FY2021-2022, while the IMF projected growth of 5.2% in its most recent forecast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
